Does anybody know what size spacers I need for these wheels at Turner Motorsports;
LTW5 Lightweight Alloy Race Wheel 17 x 9 - Part #: LTW517x9A
http://www.turnermotorsport.com/html...T_ID=LTW517x9A
These are drilled to 74mm with a 41mm offset

Or these at Bimmer World;

17X8 5-120 BMW ET35 BBS RK silver $281

I know that 15 and 25mm offsets fit for staggered wheels for the E39...
Maybe I'm wrong???
Can I get these to work with hubcentric spacers, and what size???
Thank you for the help!

For the LTW5's already bored out to 74.1mm, you'd need a 20 or 25mm spacer for the fronts and a 15 or 20mm spacer for rears. Also would need corresponding longer wheel bolts to match whatever spacer. That's getting large as far as spacers go...and with all the hassle, I'd look for wheels made for E39 fitment instead.
